Ask HN: Anti-AI Open Source License?
I'm preparing to open source some code I have and I explicitly do not want it used to train AI in any fashion. Is there an open source license that prohibits this?

If these kinds of machines interest you I highly recommend the book "The Supermen" by Charles Murray. It has all the details you would ever want on Seymour Cray and others in the business.
I was working at a geophysical company in the 80's and we lusted after a Cray-1. Best we could afford where array processors (CSPI) connected to VAX systems.

Anyone who rates "Dr. Strangelove" as a great movie is OK by me.

Ask HN: What is the best way to learn Go?
After 40+ years of writing C I'm going to learn Go. Is "The Go Programming Language" still the way? It is 8 years old now and the language has seen more than a few changes between then and now. What books should I be looking at?

Re:Convex Architecture Handbook 1984 [pdf]
on Tuesday July 16, 2024 @07:21PM (#40981248)
Was working in Seismic Data Processing at the time and, a Cray being way too expensive, the Convex machine looked like the next Big Thing in our business, which was dominated by VAX 11/780 machines running attached array processors. We had some test code that I believe we ran on the third or sixth machine they built. Met Steve Wallach, I still have a signed copy of "The Soul of a New Machine" from him. Made a few trips to Convex, first in their rented space in a strip mall, then later to their bespoke factory. They really were something at the time.
